Highlights
Quality
Very comparable image quality to the much more expensive canon equivalent but significantly cheaper.
Autofocus works flawlessly, fast with really sharp image quality.
Other than weight, its performance and photo quality is comparable to the canon 24-70 2.
It really improved the image quality my little t5i could produce.
Price
Overall, i recommend this lens for its sharpness, versatility and price.
The price is also quite competitive comparing to canon, sigma or tamron.
Shipping
Focusing is not quite as fast as usm canon lenses but certainly not slow.
Competitiveness
This is my second tokina lens, and i love it.
I have used it on my t5i with great results.
However, i did come from a crop sensor camera (sony a6000 + sel18200 f/3.
